Do you teach the Spanish used in Spain or the Spanish used in Mexico and South America?

A different Spanish is spoken in every part of the world. The majority of our resources feature a neutral, standard Spanish which should be understood by most well-educated Spanish speakers.

Only 10% of Spanish speakers live in Spain. Many people who live in Spain do not even consider themselves Spanish! A variety of languages are spoken in Spain:
Aranese is spoken mainly in the Pyrenean comarca of the Aran Valley (Val d'Aran), Basque, is spoken in the Basque Country and northern Navarre, Catalan is spoken in Catalonia and the Balearic Islands, Galician is spoken Galicia. It is also spoken without official recognition in the adjacent western parts of the Principality of Asturias and Castile and León.

Will I learn Spanish quickly with 123TeachMe?

123TeachMe uses a non-linear learning model. "So, what is non-linear learning? On one level, non-linear learning is the way that we naturally learned for a couple of hundred thousand years. In nature, linear learning doesn’t exist. People didn’t learn to swim or hunt in a linear way – through a staggered, textbook process. We learned instead by doing, through direct experience, through dealing with things as they arose, and through discovering what it was that was important at the time. But most of all, we learned through making connections between stuff we already knew and the stuff we didn't. This meant we actively constructed the knowledge as we needed it. It was all very subjective and individual and not linear." -- Ken Carroll, December 13, 2007

Language acquisition is much faster with a non-linear learning model. Peter Hirst, Director of Executive Education at MIT states, "The digital learning experience is becoming really a collection of inter-related learning nuggets, that you might take very different paths through, depending who you are and what your needs are, and how you learn most effectively. "

When one is learning a language, the brain searches for patterns and connections in order to build meaning. A linear learning model, with resources compartmentalized into separate areas, does NOT provide meaningful patterns and connections. However, a non-linear learning model promotes this type of brain growth and development. The National Association of State Boards of Education proclaims that “the balanced, integrated curriculum is based on best knowledge” of how we all learn. The innovative teaching methods developed by 123TeachMe are based on best knowledge of language acquisition.
